All my friends and family thought it was pretty funny we chose Russia...my background has always been somewhat anti-Soviet and anti-Bolshevik...it was a giant lep for me. I can't say enough about the people we met...they treated us better than we were treated in the US regarding the adoption process. Going to Russia was an incredible experience and finding my children was something I really can't adequately put into words...as anti-Soviet as I was, I can never thank those wonderful formerly Godless Bolsheviks enough for trusting me to raise these girls as little Capitalists.

One of the guys I work with has adopted 2 kids from Russia, a little boy and a little girl. As the little girl drove down the neighborhood in her little battery powered Barbie Corvette, with her faithful cat by her side, I asked him in a joking way if he thought she might grow up and join the "Young Communist League" and he just laughed and said. "I don't think that's ever gonna happen!"
